As a psychologist, spiritual leader, and educator, Rabbi Dr. Mordechai Schiffman writings analyze stories from on the weekly Torah parsha to illuminate how character development is not only central to Judaism but essential for personal flourishing, spiritual growth, and emotional well-being.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach chapter connects a parsha to a specific trait-such as gratitude, resilience, humility, self-control, patience, or compassion-showing how biblical stories and rabbinic commentary provide practical lessons for modern life. This volume also draws heavily on the writings of Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, zt\"l, and each chapter ends with a character challenge and thoughtful quotation from Rabbi Sacks. With clarity and depth, Rabbi Schiffman demonstrates how the Torah guides us to cultivate virtues that strengthen our relationships, deepen our faith, and help us live more meaningful lives. Each essay includes practical \"Character Challenges\" that invite readers to apply insights directly to their lives, making the book not just an exploration of ideas but a guide to transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten during a period marked by profound challenges, including the aftermath of the October 7 attacks, the essays in this volume speak with urgency and authenticity. They address not only how individuals can grow in character but also how communities can embody resilience, kindness, and moral clarity in times of crisis. At the same time, the book's timeless lessons transcend any single moment, offering enduring strategies for navigating adversity, finding joy, and embracing our highest values.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 190\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 25, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45446424526927,"sku":"9798888940525","price":33.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/3083\/3487\/files\/6Fi5ElBuKa9798888940525.webp?v=1780459082","url":"https:\/\/lumaryon.com\/products\/the-torah-of-character-psychological-growth-through-the-weekly-parsha-paperback","provider":"Lumaryon Universal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
